The initial value is not needed.

I'd prefer to write that as

error = autosleep_state < PM_SUSPEND_MAX ?
pm_suspend(autosleep_state) : hibernate();

There is a debug message printed for that in the device suspend code, do we
need one more here?

I'd arrange it this way:

if (error || pm_get_wakeup_count(&final_count, false)
|| final_count == initial_count)
schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(HZ / 2);

out:
queue_up_suspend_work();
